Escaping the mushroom cloud

(photo taken by Meeps)

Froggy and I will be escaping this inferno for Iowa tomorrow. FD's hometown of Tujunga is ablaze. His parents are ready to evacuate, if they need to. So far, only a few homes and cabins have burned. But the fires have destroyed over 20,000 acres. The air quality is fine by the beach, but inland, people are really suffering. It's a good time for a CFer to get out of town. Iowa here we come!
